The Robson Ranch RC Club has grown from a handful of avid RC airplane enthusiasts to a one of the larger Robson Ranch sponsored organizations in the past 12 months.

The club now includes RC car racing, social events and numerous field trips throughout the metro area. The club also sponsors an innovative program for the Eloy School District in which they teach middle school students the basics of aviation including how to actually fly RC planes.

Due to the increased membership the club now finds its present facilities will not be able to accommodate the many activities of the group. Robson Ranch has stepped in and provided a larger area for the club to build a new facility including runways and tracks for RC car racing. Robson residents will be able to access the new facility by car or golf cart only a few minutes from their homes. The club expects to move to the new facility in just a few weeks.

Any Robson resident interested in learning about racing RC cars or flying RC planes is encouraged to let club members teach them about these fascinating hobbies. For more information go to http://rrazrc.blogspot.com or call Butch Spiller at 770-265-0358.
